The Zimrovice rock


Zimrovicka skala / Zimrovice rock

[EN]
This earthcache invites you to visit a nice rock, which is one of many steps in the Hanuse educational path. If you decide to visit this rock I also recommend visiting the next educational path Marianske udoli which starts from Belaria hotel. You can leave your geo-car in hotel carpark.
Hanuse, Marinske meadow and this Zimrovice rock formed in young paleozoic era. Walks around Hanuse, which comes under Vitkov highlands in the Nizke Jeseniky area, are pleasant in all weather and all seasons. Zimrovice rock is a smaller Silesian version of Blanik hill. According to legends knights sleep inside.. In the past there were six big ponds near the rock, which also has its own legends.

Visiting an Earthcache is a great outdoor activity the whole family can enjoy. An Earthcache is a special place that people can visit to learn about a unique geoscience feature or aspect of our Earth. Earthcaches include a set of educational notes and the details about where to find the location (latitude and longitude). Visitors to Earthcaches can see how our planet has been shaped by geological processes, how we manage the resources and how scientists gather evidence to learn about the Earth.

Tato eartcache Vas zve k hezke skale, která je jednim z mnoha zastaveni na zdejsi naucne stezce Hanuse. Pokud se rozhodnete pro jeji prohlidku tak Vam rovnez doporucuji prochazku blizkym marianskym udolim kde se rovnez muzete poucit z nekolika zastatveni naucne stezky Marianske udoli, ktera zacina u hotelu Belaria, kde muzete na prostornem parkovisti zanechat sve geovozidlo.

Marianske louky geologicky patri k horstvu, ktere bylo vyvrasneno v dobe mladsich prvohor. Cele okoli Hradce je tvoreno stridajicimi se vrstvami. Toto slozeni je patrne na „Zimrovicke skale“, ktera je viditelna od Zimrovickeho splavu. Uzemi bylo ovlivneno rovnez ctvrtohornim ledovcem, ktery sem sice primo nezasahoval, ale pri jeho tani se korytem reky valily proudy vody, ktere s sebou prinasely i obrovske bludne balvany. Hanuse a Marianske louky stejne jako tato skala vznikly v dobe mladsich prvohor. Toulky po Hanusi, která spadá do Vítkovské vrchoviny v masívu Nízkého Jeseníku, se muzete potesit za kazdého pocasí, ve vsech rocních obdobích. Zimrovická skála je malým slezským Blaníkem, Podle povesti v ní také spí rytirské vojsko. V minulosti se v blizkosti skaly rozkladalo sest velkych rybniku. K nimz se rovnez vaze rada povesti.

Misto je verejne pristupne.
